Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) and Site Acceptance Testing (SAT)

Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) and Site Acceptance Testing (SAT) are critical quality assurance processes in the industrial manufacturing sector. At Therser UK, a leading manufacturer of kilns, furnaces, dryers, and associated automation systems, these testing procedures are integral to ensuring that equipment meets stringent performance and safety standards before becoming operational.

Understanding FAT and SAT

Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT): Conducted at the manufacturer's facility, FAT involves a series of predefined tests to verify that equipment functions according to design specifications. This stage allows for the identification and rectification of issues before delivery, ensuring that the equipment meets contractual and regulatory requirements.

Site Acceptance Testing (SAT): Performed at the customer's site after installation, SAT ensures that the equipment operates correctly within its actual operational environment. This testing phase confirms proper installation, integration with existing systems, and compliance with site-specific requirements.

Importance of FAT and SAT at Therser UK

Quality Assurance: By conducting FAT, Therser UK ensures that each piece of equipment adheres to high-quality standards, minimizing the risk of defects and operational failures.

Customer Confidence: Allowing customers to witness FAT provides transparency and builds trust, assuring them that the equipment meets their specifications before shipment.


Compliance Verification: Both FAT and SAT confirm that equipment complies with industry standards, safety regulations, and contractual obligations, which is crucial for operational legitimacy and safety.

Risk Mitigation: Identifying and resolving issues during FAT reduces the likelihood of problems during installation and operation, saving time and costs associated with post-delivery fixes.

Performance Validation: SAT verifies that equipment performs optimally within the actual operational environment, ensuring seamless integration and functionality.
